Estonian Unemployment Insurance Fund employee job satisfaction and engagement survey

A bidder will be excluded if the company or a member of its management or supervisory body, procurator or legal representative has been convicted of, among other things, participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorism, money laundering or terrorist financing, or of enabling the unlawful employment of a foreign national, illegal child labour or human trafficking. Exclusion also applies where the bidder has unpaid national taxes, duties or environmental charges, or unpaid tax and social security contributions, or where awarding the contract would breach an international or Estonian Government sanction. The contracting authority may also exclude a bidder for breaches of environmental, social or labour law, bankruptcy or liquidation, serious professional misconduct, unpaid local taxes, anti-competitive agreements, an unavoidable conflict of interest, serious previous contract breaches, false statements, attempts to influence the authority or submission of misleading information. Exclusion may also result from a tax-related conviction or the bidder's lack of legal standing to submit a bid. The bidder must provide the information required to verify the exclusion grounds and confirm that awarding the contract and providing the service would not breach sanctions.
